Spring 965 MC
Lady Aubrey Brandon, Baroness of Hawksburg, took her seat. To her right sat Revi Bloom, the head of this council, while to her left was Albreda. Aldus Hearn was also present, along with Kiren-Jool, the Kurathian Enchanter. Kraloch sat at the end of the table to give his Orcish frame more elbow room, while across from her sat two visitors. The first was Roxanne Fortuna, the Weldwyn Life Mage who had been helping her and Kraloch with their research. The other visitor, Lord Arandil Greycloak, was a far more forbidding prospect. As Lord of the Darkwood, he had come to claim the body of his daughter, Telethial, who had died some months previously. She had long since been buried, but the brooding Elf had remained, determined to have his say in matters as an ally of Merceria.
